Our level 2 is designed to perfect skills and build confidence.

You've had a week riding in the mountains and you could link turns by the end of your holiday. Or, you've had a few weeks snowboarding, and you haven't clicked with it yet. Perhaps you feel you have lost your confidence and want to take it easy, concentrating on technique to regain your skills.

You generally feel happier turning onto one edge (toe or heel), although you can turn on to both edges on green and blue runs. You think you have some work to do before feeling comfortable linking turns on steeper sections of the piste.

Either way, our focus is on understanding how to use the fundamental elements of snowboarding (basic technique of riding) to help you achieve your goals. Alliance Instructors are patient, helpful and have lots of experience at bringing people through this sometimes-difficult stage. Don't be fooled into thinking that this will be all work and no play! Our Instructors will show you new, interesting places on the mountain, but primarily, they will ensure that you have fun.

By the end of the week, you should be comfortable going down most blues, and some reds.
